| I don't think any other play experience has come close to leaving me shattered and stunned when the lights came up as either of those did. Somehow, despite being under-appreciated and under-attended, it managed to win Best Revival at the Tonys. Perhaps because the other contenders were not very notable (Inherit the Wind, Talk Radio, Translations... I see a lot of shows and managed to miss all 3, possibly because Coast of Utopia was that year and took up 3 slots)... but still, it won! A real real shame it's final performance was the same day it won the Tony. |

| I don't think it was underappreciated by the critics, nor by the audiences that did show up. You just couldn't get very many people there, doubtless because it sounded too upsetting and depressing. | |

| Their "curtain call" was extraordinary. As I looked at that wall, I saw McCabes listed, Among other family names. Many Irish in England and Ireland had served in 'The Great War'. |
